Currently Casting for:

ATOMIC WILD

Performances: December 3 - 19

Atomic Wild is a new interdisciplinary performance built from civic myth, memory, spectacle, and our enduring obsession with the future.

Moving between Seattle’s Century 21 World’s Fair, the uranium boom of the Atomic West, and 40 years of art-making at Annex Theatre, Atomic Wild looks at the strange promises we make about what comes next: the futures we advertise, the futures we build, and the stories that survive their makers.

Developed with the Annex community through a collaborative devising process, Atomic Wild asks: What do we inherit? What do we bury? What refuses to disappear? And what can the future hold?
